A quick correction: I apparently still have a little work to do on my stylesheet, so if you are using a standards-compliant browser, and this site still looks out of whack, that's probably me, not you. Still, it looks great in Mozilla, so…

Mark the time: the first Christmas ad of the season.

I Christen Thee…

…CommaBlog, at least until someone who ownes the copyright to the word "blog" decides to drop the hammer.

No offense to the HTML::Mason folks, but I know the Comma Guys, and it really is their software that got this puppy off the ground, so they get the proper props.

I've decided that the software that "powers" this site is something I plan on releasing at some point, although it is far from ready at the moment. The reason: coding for a specific function is easy; coding for the abstract is hard.

That, and lots of stuff needs to still be built. Like reporting, better browser editing, a calendar navigation system, and a feature yet-to-be-named, no doubt stolen from another blogging system, until the lawyers… well, I've said that already.

If you're the curious sort, contact me and we can talk in greater depth about what I'm doing. If you're not that type, then you've probably already clicked off to another site, so I guess I'm done.

I just checked out my name numerology. Apparently, I'm a bit of a loner (very true), dependable (more or less true), and an expert at dealing with people (completely false). I'm glad this numerology stuff didn't peg me right, because if it did, I'd have had to waste a few brain cycles re-examining my habitual distinction between science and crap.
